Do thin people starve themselves constantly? I don't get it. For the past week I've been on starvation mode of an average of 1000 calories/day and it's surely burning away my tummy fat, but how is this sustainable in the long term?
u can calculate it but honestly as long as you're not gorging you can kind of feel it out over time, if you say, gain 2 pounds every week over a month then you need to eat less food, if you're still losing weight then you can probably eat more food
A lot of people need to do a bit of trial and error to hone in on what their true maintainable calories are.
If you’re a thin man it’s usually in the 1500-2000 range, plus any exercise calories. Figure out the amount that makes you not gain or lose anything over several weeks/months, and you should eventually develop an intuition to what that calorie amount “feels” like so you don’t have to calorie count for the rest of your life.
Bad news is some people will always feel at least a little bit hungry on the maintenance calories needed to stay thin. If that’s you, you gotta choose to be a bit hungry forever, or bulk up a bit, or cope via high-volume satiety-focused meals in perpetuity.
EAT 3 NORMAL SIZED MEALS A DAY >CARBS AND FAT AND PROTEIN FOR BREAKFAST >LESS CARBS, LESS FAT AND MORE PROTEIN FOR LUNCH >CLOSE TO NO CARBS, LOW FAT AND MORE PROTEIN FOR DINNER >DONT EAT JUNK AND SUGAR, DONT DRINK ALCOHOL AND SODA AND JUICES
Your biggest mistake is that you eat till you're full.
You don't eat until you're full. You eat until you're not hungry. >Inb4 that's exactly the same as being full
No it isn't. If you eat until you're not hungry, you can get up and go jog 20 minutes later. If you eat until you're full, the same action will make you throw up.
There's a lot of room between "full" and "not hungry". I suggest that you do a 3 day fast so you can find out what real hunger feels like and distinguish it from just wanting to eat out of boredom.
1000 calories isnt sustainable
You can get thin on like 2000 calories a day it just takes a lot longer if you werent already thin
Thin people simply never got fat in the first place
You don't let yourself get to a point where you need to cut 20lbs. Thin guys stay at their thin size year round, then cut 5lbs in the summer. Diet control, also helps when it's your job to be thin
I grew up being fed mostly rice, veggies, and chicken breasts for dinner. It was the one based thing my parents did but I also developed a pornography addiction and anxiety issues from an early age from being left to my own devices too often. This developed into a tendency to undereat, especially when stressed. Now, if I'm not too stressed out I can maintain a healthy diet fairly easily but eating significantly over my TDEE is both mentally and economically taxing. Right now I'm back home from across the country for a wedding and I'm nervous as frick (caffeine addict) so I legit have to choke down my food because my appetite is the first thing to go when I get stressed out.
I'm just this way normally. I look like guy in OP and have always been like this. I never starve myself. Food isn't motivating to me. Eating is a chore. I'm not depressed or anything, there's just other shit I'd rather do than eat. Eating is like showering to me. It's kind of nice, I guess. But having to do it 3 times a day is a drag.
>how do I lose weight?
Feel hungry as often as possible >how do I maintain weight?
Eat when you're hungry, stop when you're no longer hungry >how do I gain weight?
Feel full as often as possible

>eat maintenance after you reach your goal
How do you know your maintenance? Just eat until you're full but not too full?

So there is no point in trying because no matter how much weight I lose I’ll never look thin?
